Glenview Lodge is a super sized glamping chalet. It has a full sized double bed, en-suite, lounge area, kitchenette and dining table and chairs. The kitchenette has a toaster, kettle, microwave and fridge, please note there is NO hot plate. There is tea, coffee, sugar, salt & pepper also a welcome pack of milk, porridge, biscuits and yummy hot chocolate! Externally Glenview Lodge offers stunning views around Glengrasco and on a clear day the Outer Hebrides of Harris can be seen. There is a decked area to the front and a large gravelled area to the side. Whilst sitting outside listen out for the resident Golden Eagles which are frequent visitors. Only 2.5 miles to Portree, this is an ideal base for peace and tranquility whilst the capital is a short drive away offering numerous shops, cafes and restaurants. Glenview Lodge is ideally located to explore Skye.
Vanessa was delighted to launch Glenview Lodge which was brand new as of June 2019. She looks forward to welcoming guests and wants to ensure that their stay is enjoyable and relaxing. Since moving to Skye in April 2018, Vanessa enjoys running, wild swimming, photography and walking her dog Lola. Glenview Lodge is located to the front of Vanessa’s bungalow. You are completely separated and have your own private parking and garden area. Vanessa is happy to meet and greet when possible but equally happy to leave you to enjoy your holiday in peace and quiet.
Glengrasco is a quiet township only 2.2 miles from Portree. There is a golf course approximately 4 miles away. Portree is a bustling little harbour town with some fantastic restaurants and independent shops. There is also a Co-operative supermarket, a mini supermarket, a Boots Chemist, a Medical Centre, Tourist Information Centre and lots more!!!!
